[G.Hall] Yet another Calypso day...

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ashton walked into the Great Hall, and over to the far corner, Fay's drums, and his microphone had already been set up. He just needed Fay and Bray. Sitting down on the edege of the stage to wait for them, he started practicing the song he had written for Laney earlier that week.

We don't have to try
To think the same thoughts
We just have a way
Of knowing everything's gonna be ok

We'll laugh 'til we cry
Read each others minds
Live with a smile
Make it all worthwhile
Make it all worthwhile

Life has moments hard to describe
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain we're on

Always knowing we're gonna be fine
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain were on
The view is so clear
And it's crazy up here
Life is amazing with you on the ride

We don't wanna sleep
Just wanna stay up
There's so much to say
And not enough hours in the day

We'll laugh 'til we cry
Read each others minds
Live with a smile
Make it all worthwhile
Make it all worthwhile

Life has moments hard to describe
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain we're on

Always knowing we're gonna be fine
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain were on
The feelings so clear
And it's crazy up here
Life is amazing with you on the ride

No time to be lazy
The journey is perfect
The pace is so crazy
The race is so worth it
I will be with you
We'll do this together
Always together

Life has moments hard to describe
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain we're on
(Mountain we’re on)

Always knowing we're gonna be fine
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Never comin' down
Never comin' down
Never comin’ down (from this)

Always knowing were gonna be fine
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this
Mountain were on
(Never coming down from this)

The feeling's so clear and it's crazy up here
Life is amazing with you on the ride
The place so is crazy
The race is so worth it
Life is amazing with you on the ride"

Ash smiled as he sang, it was uncanny how true the song was. Life with Laney, was amazing.

[Bradyn Reed]

Bradyn, deciding that for once he would make an attempt to be on-time as opposed to his usual slothful lateness, made his way towards the Great Hall early. He probably looked stupid, carrying his amp in a giant case on one shoulder, and his guitar thrown over the other shoulder when he could just as easily levitate it.

Walking in, he gave a little victory cheer. For once in his life, he'd be at a scheduled meeting, before Fay. This called for rubbing it in her face! But for now, he'd talk serious with Ash and see if he could get some structure to their practice this time. Bending down and opening the bag with his amp in it, he pulled out the machinery, a folder full of papers, and a dry-erase board with a set of colorful markers. You could definitely say that Bray came prepared this time. Yes, the lazy cat boy would make them do something.

"Oy, Ash. Come over here." He said, waving the emo boy over with his hand while he started writing something down on the board.

Suggested Songs

From Bray:

• Hazy Shade of Winter
  
• Africa

From Ash:

Once he was satifyed with the little chart, he glanced towards Ash. "I thought we should establish our songs this time. Like get everyone's opinions out first. Then we could play a few that we aren't sure whether or not we want to play. And then we could pick ones we want to focus on learning for the rest of the practice." Bray pointed to the songs he wrote down on his name. "That's the song I wrote over the summer... and well," Bray paused, and blushed for a moment as he remembered El inspired the second one. "I wrote that one so far this term. I got the sheet music in that folder."

[PS: ally, if your wondering about Africa. It was a song I was going to send to you, so.. yeah! You'll hear it, I'm sure. it's beautiful <3][/font]

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash glanced up as Bray walked in. "Hey Bray, what's goin on?" he asked as he walked over. He looked at Bray's display and nodded. "Nice, it could work. Has Fay seen it?"

[Bradyn Reed]

Bradyn laughed a bit. Could work, how was it possibly questionable? Last time they just sat around playing music for fun, maybe this time they could have a real band-like practice. "Nah, she'll see it as soon as she gets her butt over here." He glanced up towards the door and tisk-tisked her. "She must be late if I beat her here."

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity had just been walking down the corridor, drumming against anything and everything in her reach. She hummed softly as she did it, tapping her drumsticks to the tune in her head. It was a pretty usual sight.

But, of course, someone just had to be racing down the halls. Just as Felicity was turning the corner to walk down the stairs, some kid ran past her, knocking into her side. And Fay, in all of her amazing luck, lost her balance and fell down the stairs.

After she had recovered from slamming against the wall, she realized that her drumsticks have been broken. Still mad, she muttered the reparing spell and started back toward the meeting spot.

Felicity was tempted to kick open the door, but she decided to just push open one side. She threw off her cloak and tossed it over onto one of the tables. Fay blew some hair out of her eyes and stuck her wand behind her ear.

"Sorry I'm late, someone knocked me down the stairs."

She moved over to her stool and plopped down on it. "So, what're we doing?"

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash looked up as Fay entered, "Hey Lissie. Well, I'm not too sure at the moment. Bray seems to be the mastermind of this plan, so might want to ask him."

[Bradyn Reed]

When he heard the door open, Bradyn pointed towards Fay with the blame finger. "You're late! I'm here before you! No excuse for that, not even your chronic clumsiness!" He shouted, but then grinned and shook her head. "Maybe we should buy you some wings. Since you seem to have pretty rotten luck with stairs." Then, looking back down at his little table, he grinned.

"We're having a tea party, duh! What else would we possibly do with instruments." Rolling his eyes, he waved the silly Claw over to some see what he was working on.

"As I was telling Ash, I thought we'd organize all the songs we're thinking about and might play before the practice, so we're not just playing random riffs and having fun. This way, we can leave and actually know what we played." Pulling the cap back off his marker, he glanced at this fellow band members. "Assuming that I wasn't the only person who came with songs and sheet music, what would you two like to play? And did you bring the music or not?"

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash gazed thoughtfully at the board, "Wow. This is a great idea. I have a few songs, but I'll let you two go first."
